finger to the deaf/hard of hearing

1. There was no need for the preface, and including it makes you sound insecure. This is a public forum, people can browse and post to any topics they wish. You'll spare yourself a lot of grief if you learn to ignore jerks, rather than hoping they ignore you.

2. Along the same lines, while it certainly would've been courteous of the developers to include more features for the hearing impaired, it's not everyone else's responsibility to accommodate your disability. The devs are not "giving you the finger" because they didn't include better subtitles. There was no company meeting where they sat around and thought up ways to screw over the hearing impaired. The world owes you nothing, and the sooner you accept that the happier you'll be.

On point number 2... how much of a dick are you? If you want to be selfish think of it this way: why wouldn't a dev include options for disabilities (subtitles, colourblind options) as it those people affected can then buy your games and you get more money.

It was a dick move, pure and simple. and you're being kind of a jerk for acting like I'm being entitled for wanting a f***ing bare basic part of a game that should have always been there in every release since the PS2 era. It makes me wonder what else you think I'm being entitled for.

That is almost the definition of entitlement. That you consider something they go out of their way to add for people with a disability, a minor portion of their audience, a bare basic screams that.

This is the beginning to why CoD WWII does not have swastikas but rather has the ability to play as black female german nazis.

But yeah, it's a shame that they didn't include better subtitles. Maybe it was overlooked. The inclusion of something like that isn't required though.

Actually the more amazing thing is that there are still payphones? I remember they used to be everywhere. Like you could walk for 5-10 minutes and find a payphone...now it's like there might be one payphone in a 5 mile radius and if you're lucky it didn't get vandalized to hell.
